< 1 Corinthians 12 >

1 Now concerning spiritual gifts, brothers, I would not have you ignorant.
Na rĩrĩ, ariũ na aarĩ a Ithe witũ, ha ũhoro wa iheo cia kĩĩroho-rĩ, ndikwenda mũikare mũrigĩtwo nĩguo.
2 You know that you were Gentiles, carried away to these dumb idols, even as you were led.
Inyuĩ nĩmũũĩ atĩ hĩndĩ ĩrĩa mũteetĩkĩtie Ngai, nĩmwaguucagĩrĩrio na mũkerekerio kũrĩ mĩhianano ĩtangĩaria.
3 Why I give you to understand, that no man speaking by the Spirit of God calls Jesus accursed: and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost.
Nĩ ũndũ ũcio ngũmwĩra atĩ, gũtirĩ mũndũ waragia ahotithĩtio nĩ Roho wa Ngai ũngiuga atĩrĩ, “Jesũ aronyiitwo nĩ kĩrumi,” na gũtirĩ mũndũ ũngĩhota kuuga atĩrĩ, “Jesũ nĩ Mwathani,” atatongoretio nĩ Roho Mũtheru.
4 Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.
Na rĩrĩ, iheo iria iheanagwo nĩ mĩthemba mĩthemba, no Roho ũrĩa ũciheanaga no ũmwe.
5 And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord.
O na njĩra cia gũtungata nĩ mĩthemba mĩthemba, no Mwathani ũrĩa ũtungatagwo no ũmwe.
6 And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which works all in all.
Ningĩ kũrĩ mĩrutĩre ya wĩra mĩthemba mĩthemba, no Ngai no ũmwe ũrĩa ũhotithagia maũndũ mothe gwĩkĩka thĩinĩ wa andũ othe.
7 But the manifestation of the Spirit is given to every man to profit with.
Na rĩrĩ, o mũndũ nĩaheagwo ũndũ wa kuonania atĩ arĩ na Roho, naguo ũndũ ũcio nĩ wa kũguna andũ othe.
8 For to one is given by the Spirit the word of wisdom; to another the word of knowledge by the same Spirit;
Roho ũcio nĩwe ũheaga mũndũ ũmwe ndũmĩrĩri ya ũũgĩ, na ũngĩ akaheo ũmenyo nĩ Roho o ro ũcio,
9 To another faith by the same Spirit; to another the gifts of healing by the same Spirit;
nake ũngĩ akaheo wĩtĩkio nĩ Roho o ro ũcio, na ũngĩ akaheo iheo cia kũhonania nĩ Roho o ro ũcio,
10 To another the working of miracles; to another prophecy; to another discerning of spirits; to another divers kinds of tongues; to another the interpretation of tongues:
nake ũngĩ akaheo hinya wa kũringa ciama, na ũngĩ akaheo ũrathi, na ũngĩ akaheo gũkũũrana maroho, na ũngĩ akaheo kwaria na thiomi mĩthemba mĩthemba, ningĩ ũngĩ akaheo ũhoti wa gũtaũra thiomi icio.
11 But all these works that one and the selfsame Spirit, dividing to every man severally as he will.
Maũndũ macio mothe nĩ wĩra wa Roho o ro ũcio ũmwe, nake agayagĩra o mũndũ o ũrĩa ekwenda.
12 For as the body is one, and has many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ.
Mwĩrĩ wa mũndũ nĩ ũmwe, o na gwatuĩka ũrĩ ciĩga nyingĩ; ningĩ o na gwatuĩka ciĩga ciaguo ciothe nĩ nyingĩ-rĩ, ciothe no mwĩrĩ o ũmwe. Ũguo noguo Kristũ atariĩ.
13 For by one Spirit are we all baptized into one body, whether we be Jews or Gentiles, whether we be bond or free; and have been all made to drink into one Spirit.
Nĩgũkorwo ithuothe twabatithirio na Roho ũmwe tũgĩtuĩka a mwĩrĩ ũmwe, o na tũrĩ Ayahudi kana tũrĩ Ayunani, tũrĩ ngombo o na kana tũtarĩ ngombo, na ithuothe tũkĩnyuithio Roho o ro ũcio ũmwe.
14 For the body is not one member, but many.
Na rĩrĩ, mwĩrĩ ndũkoragwo na kĩĩga kĩmwe, no nĩ wa ciĩga nyingĩ.
15 If the foot shall say, Because I am not the hand, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?
Kũgũrũ kũngiuga atĩ, “Tondũ ti niĩ guoko-rĩ, ndirĩ wa mwĩrĩ ũyũ,” Ũndũ ũcio ndũngĩtũma gũtige gũtuĩka kĩĩga kĩa mwĩrĩ ũcio.
16 And if the ear shall say, Because I am not the eye, I am not of the body; is it therefore not of the body?
Nakuo gũtũ kũngiuga atĩ, “Tondũ ti niĩ riitho-rĩ, ndirĩ wa mwĩrĩ ũcio,” nĩ ũndũ wa gĩtũmi kĩu gũtingĩtiga gũtuĩka kĩĩga kĩa mwĩrĩ ũcio.
17 If the whole body were an eye, where were the hearing? If the whole were hearing, where were the smelling?
Mwĩrĩ wothe ũngĩkorwo no riitho-rĩ, kũigua tũngĩiguaga na kĩ? Mwĩrĩ wothe ũngĩkorwo no gũtũ-rĩ, kũnungĩra tũngĩnungagĩra na kĩ?
18 But now has God set the members every one of them in the body, as it has pleased him.
No ũrĩa kũrĩ, nĩ atĩ Ngai nĩ eekĩrire ciĩga ciothe thĩinĩ wa mwĩrĩ, agĩciĩkĩra o ta ũrĩa eendaga ciikare.
19 And if they were all one member, where were the body?
Ciĩga ciothe ingĩtuĩka nĩ kĩĩga kĩmwe-rĩ, mwĩrĩ naguo ũngĩkorwo ha?
20 But now are they many members, yet but one body.
Ũrĩa kũrĩ nĩ atĩ ciĩga nĩ nyingĩ, no mwĩrĩ nĩ ũmwe.
21 And the eye cannot say to the hand, I have no need of you: nor again the head to the feet, I have no need of you.
Riitho rĩtingĩhota kwĩra guoko atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ndirĩ na bata nawe!” Naguo mũtwe wĩre magũrũ atĩrĩ, “Niĩ ndirĩ na bata na inyuĩ!”
22 No, much more those members of the body, which seem to be more feeble, are necessary:
Handũ ha ũguo-rĩ, ciĩga cia mwĩrĩ iria cionekaga itarĩ hinya, nĩcio irĩ bata makĩria,
23 And those members of the body, which we think to be less honorable, on these we bestow more abundant honor; and our uncomely parts have more abundant comeliness.
nacio ciĩga iria tuonaga ta itarĩ cia gũtĩĩo mũno-rĩ, nĩcio tũheaga gĩtĩĩo kĩa mwanya. Nacio ciĩga iria tuonaga ta itagĩrĩire kuoneka nĩimenyagĩrĩrwo mũno,
24 For our comely parts have no need: but God has tempered the body together, having given more abundant honor to that part which lacked.
o rĩrĩa ciĩga ciitũ iria itarĩ cia kũhithwo itabataragio nĩkũmenyererwo mũno. No Ngai nĩanyiitithanĩtie ciĩga cia mwĩrĩ na agatĩĩithia makĩria ciĩga iria ciagĩte gĩtĩĩo,
25 That there should be no schism in the body; but that the members should have the same care one for another.
nĩgeetha gũtikae kũgĩa na nyamũkano thĩinĩ wa mwĩrĩ, no nĩgeetha ciĩga ciaguo imenyanagĩrĩre o kĩĩga na kĩrĩa kĩngĩ.
26 And whether one member suffer, all the members suffer with it; or one member be honored, all the members rejoice with it.
Kĩĩga kĩmwe kĩngĩnyariirĩka, ciĩga iria ingĩ inyariirĩkaga hamwe nakĩo; nakĩo kĩĩga kĩmwe kĩngĩheo gĩtĩĩo-rĩ, o nacio ciĩga iria ingĩ nĩikenaga hamwe nakĩo.
27 Now you are the body of Christ, and members in particular.
Na rĩrĩ, inyuĩ mũrĩ mwĩrĩ wa Kristũ, na o mũndũ wanyu nĩ kĩĩga kĩaguo.
28 And God has set some in the church, first apostles, secondarily prophets, thirdly teachers, after that miracles, then gifts of healings, helps, governments, diversities of tongues.
Nakuo thĩinĩ wa kanitha, Ngai nĩathuurĩte mbere andũ amwe matuĩke atũmwo, a keerĩ anabii, a gatatũ arutani, o na ningĩ kũgĩe na aringi a ciama, o na arĩa marĩ na iheo cia kũhonania mĩrimũ, na arĩa marĩ na ũhoti wa gũteithia arĩa angĩ, na arĩa marĩ na iheo cia ũtabarĩri, na arĩa maaragia na thiomi mĩthemba mĩthemba.
29 Are all apostles? are all prophets? are all teachers? are all workers of miracles?
Andũ othe nĩ atũmwo? Andũ othe nĩ anabii? Andũ othe nĩ arutani? Andũ othe nĩ aringi a ciama?
30 Have all the gifts of healing? do all speak with tongues? do all interpret?
Andũ othe nĩmaheetwo iheo cia kũhonania? Andũ othe nĩmakĩaragia na thiomi? Andũ othe nĩmagĩtaũraga thiomi?
31 But covet earnestly the best gifts: and yet show I to you a more excellent way.
No rĩrĩ, mwĩriragĩriei iheo iria irĩ bata mũno. Na rĩu nĩngũmuonia njĩra ĩrĩa njega makĩria.
